The Kerri Edelman Show presents Alternative Rock Band Falling Through April

Falling Through April's band founders (Jim Siani, Dave Piontek, Taylor Foster, Dan Candia) have weathered the full gamut of hurdles as a startup since forming in 2011, ranging from exploding transmissions and ghosting vocalists to nearby celebratory gun fire landing Taylor in the hospital. When charismatic front woman Mikaela Salazar stepped into their lives in 2016, the road blocks were removed, and everyone found something to be excited about. The band has 2 previous independent releases: The "Take Flight" album in 2012; and the "Risk and Reward" EP in 2015. In early 2017, FTA packed up and drove to Nashville, TN for a several month's long recording binge with producer and friend Jon King (Augustana, Darling Parade). The result is their new album "Zodiac", a powerful alt-rock collection that melds influences ranging from Incubus to Halsey. The band has amassed a significant touring resume, having opened for The Pretty Reckless, Pop Evil, Adelitas Way, Flyleaf and more. They have also performed at major festivals including the Vans Warped Tour, SXSW, Florida Music Festival, Sonorous Music Festival, Dewey Beach Music Conference and Celebrate Fairfax. Their touring has garnered them endorsements from PRS and Reverend Guitars, among others. FTA's goal is to have their music reach as many people as possible around the world and for their music to inspire and encourage listeners. Becoming a household name in the modern rock community drives them forward, and “Zodiac,” which will be released on January 19th, promises to help them achieve that goal.  A second single and video will be released in early 2018.
